Abstract: | The logic of maintaining stability is an important factor in shaping the organizational form of Chinese courts. In the maintenance of stability, basic courts and local party and government systems have formed a close mutual need relationship. On the one hand, the basic courts participate in the local stability maintenance work by exercising their judicial functions and extending their judicial functions; on the other hand, the basic courts also need the support of the local party and government system in the case trial execution and litigation related petitions through letters and visits. Under the influence of the logic of maintaining stability, the basic courts have formed an operation mechanism with case attribute transformation, responsibility system reconstruction and organizational operation reconstruction as its main contents, and the internal organizational form has been adjusted. The adjusted organizational form has greatly improved the basic courts'' ability to deal with stability issues, but the independent exercise space of judges is limited to a certain extent. In the period of social transformation, basic social contradictions are prominent, and the construction and operation of the organization form of basic courts still need to be based on careful consideration of the pressure to maintain stability. |
